Title: Error-correction encoding and decoding
Inventor: MITTELHOLZER THOMAS
IPC: H04L1/00
Filed: 2014-04-25
Abstract: Encoding data supplied to a data channel using a quarter product code CQ, having identical row and column codes and being reversible, whereby a codeword corresponds to a triangular sub-array of a square matrix confined between its diagonal and anti-diagonal. K input data symbols are stored for encoding. The K input data symbols are assigned to respective symbol locations in a notional square array, having n rows and n columns of symbol locations, to define a plurality of k-symbol words in respective rows of the array. The k-symbol words are encoded by encoding rows and columns of the array in dependence on a product code C having identical row and column codes, each being a reversible error-correction code of dimension k and length n=2n. This encoding is performed so as to define a codeword, having n2 code symbols corresponding to respective locations of said array, of a quarter product code CQ defined by CQ = { X â XT â (X â XT)F } where X is an (n by n)-symbol matrix defining a codeword of said product code C, XT is the transpose matrix of X, and (X â XT)F is a reflection of matrix (X â XT) in the anti-diagonal thereof. The n(n â 1) code symbols in said codeword of CQ which correspond to respective locations in a triangular sub-array confined between the diagonal and anti-diagonal of said array are then output to the data channel.

Title: Non-linear transmission line device
Inventor: DOLAN JOHN ERIC
IPC: H03K3/80
Filed: 2014-06-25
Abstract: A high-power microwave pulse may be provided to a load 54 at the end of non-linear transmission line by driving the input end of the line with a video frequency pulse from a generator 50. The hollow ferrite material element 52 is biased by a longitudinal magnetic field so that microwave frequency precession occurs when the input pulse, which produces a circumferential magnetic field, is applied. At least one end of the ferrite element is profiled to reduce demagnetisation and so provide a homogeneous biasing magnetic field within the end portion of the element, which reduces magnetic losses.Â The profile may be tapered, stepped or smoothly curved. The ferrite element mayÂ alternatively be solid rather than hollow, and of flat and generally rectangular form, with profiling across its width and at its ends (figures 9,10), the solid ferrite element being placed between two planar line conductors.Â

Filed: 2014-07-21
Abstract: A computer system comprises a number of machines, each running its own operating system. The machines may be virtual machines or may be physical machines in a multiprocessor system. A first machine is a client system 10, which does not have its own network stack. Second 12 and third 14 machines are communication bridges, each of which has its own network stack 20, 22. One bridge is a master 26 and the other is a slave 28. The client sends outgoing data to the master and slave bridges. The master bridge then sends the data to a network with its stack. The network sends data to the master and slave bridges via their stacks. The master then sends the data to the client. Then master and slave exchange status information. If the slave does not receive information from the master, it becomes the master.

IPC: C12N15/90
Filed: 2016-01-10
Abstract: Methods for homologous recombination including donor gene insertion and target gene capture and methods for gene disruption are disclosed wherein an exogenous plasmid, artificial chromosome or vector in circular format is linearized via CRISPR nuclease activity. A method of target gene, or sequence, capture uses a circular capture vector which comprises homology arms homologous to sequences flanking the gene to be captured, each the homology arms being outside of and flanking a pair of CAS nuclease cutting sites (i.e. CRISPR target sequence and PAM). The vector is transfected into the target cell, the region between the homology arms is excised by the CRISPR process and homologous recombination between the linearized vector and the target gene captures the gene in a now circular vector. Other vectors, the resultant cells and isolated gene products concerning gene knock-in and cell transformations wherein the vector is subject to CRISPR cleavage are also disclosed.

Title: Bandwith prioritization
Inventor: Nathan j peterson
IPC: H04L47/52
Filed: 2016-04-11
Abstract: A method to identify the bandwidth capacity of a network connection, identify a plurality of bandwidth requests associated with it and determine prioritisation of the bandwidth requests based upon the bandwidth availability. The method may be used in a home network where the connection to an ISP has a limited bandwidth capacity and creates a bottleneck for the multiple devices and applications that may be contending for bandwidth. The bandwidth may be prioritised for applications such as video streaming so that resolution is maintained and buffering avoided. To maintain quality of service (QoS) other services deemed to be lower priority may be throttled or even shut off temporarily or permanently. The prioritisation may be linked to a user or based on the characteristics of an application, a device or a usage pattern. If the bandwidth capacity is to be exceeded a notification may be provided to the user.
